Makeup Tip Monday: A Natural Way to Bronze

Here's a tip for those that are new to bronzing/contouring or want a more natural way to bronze or sculpt the face:

Instead of using a bronzer, most of which tend to have shimmer, use your favorite powder formula in a couple shades darker than your natural skin tone. A powder will have a more natural finish to it and it will blend easily over or under your normal powder. You can also use a powder a few shades lighter than your skin tone to highlight your face.

Benefit Hoola is a really nice bronzer for INdian skintone. I did try Mineralize skin-finish in medium deep and I found it too muddy looking to be a bronzer. Hoola has some golden undertones and match so perfectly with mine.
